Spending some more time after one night burn in. With the Sound Rhyme SR7
Threw on the Penon Vocal Cable and JVC Spiral Dots
Some quick observations
I started yesterday with Bass and Treble Swich On.
Spent the day in that position and was finding the bass over powers the vocals on certian tracks. Mostly on some Female vocal tracks.
Bass was also effecting the stage.
Today: Bass Switch OFF Treble ON
Highs balanced out a bit more.
DD playing lower into sub bass.
No dought the bass switch adds more weight to Vocals but a tad too much for female vocals .
Without Bass switch ON, The Bass is very balanced in the mix enough to add great micro details and fast with the Mid Bass slam.
Stage is realy wide and deep and has great height. ![]()
This is the ultimate setting for me for Vocals and rock.
Now compared to the PENON FAN2 as I was going back and forth.
- Bass goes lower on the SR7 tho the graph shows otherwise probable because the added weight and slightly less speedy drivers. I thonk overall the SR7 is better quality than F2.
Vocals vs F2 you get more information, with better clarity 1Mid BA vs 4 no surprise here. So more quantity and quality sound more natural in the overall mix. The SR7 sounds more natural and smooth.
More Balanced than F2 Bass/Mids/Highs mix
F2 has a funner 3D stage but the SR7 keeps you more focused on Vocals.
I am having a really hard time trying to figure out what switch position is my favorite?
Going to try a different cable my favorite from XINHS to add some note weight with Bass switch off and see I have a sneaky Suspicion that will be the winning combo. And will report back in my full review this weekend.
Bass ON Definitely FUN
Bass OFF laser focused Vocals
Thats it for now.
(UPDATE:) Later that eve…
Back to Bass switch On.
That Penon Vocal Cable not a good pairing too much of a good thing is not a good thing.
A Simple SPC much smoother. For thoose that just said that was alot of whooey for cables thats ok if you dont believe or cant hear a difference you save yourself some money and the stock cable is very nice ![]()
Love this $20 Baller 2 core SPC:
